Step 1 --
Recognize that
your happiness
is YOUR job
NOT anyone else's
and if you're failing
to find happiness
that's YOUR failure
my late wife taught me to be happy.
all she went through she remained happy and cheerful
if she could do it so can I.
R.I.P. sorry for your loss 😢🙏.
Making something or restoring something can help as well, you are doing for yourself and for anyone else. You can take as long as you need and enjoy the process.
I think that the biggest thing that people confuse is living a life of happiness vs a life of pleasure. Happiness is steady medium highs, medium lows. Pleasure you always need more and high highs, pit of lows
A lot of the things you listed I already do and work very well for me, but I feel compelled to push back a teensy bit on the food thing.
I've learned that the smell alone of an orange (nevermind eating it) can perk up my mood considerably even on a tough day. Plus, if it's a tiny snack orange it's not a whole lot of calories. Also, it provides a little vitamin C boost, what other treat does that?? Citrus advocacy aside, I'm loving the low-key content Daisy, be well 💛
What would make me happy is my Pfizer booster dose on the last day this year, causing heart inflammation in my already reconstructed heart and pushing over the edge into the next realm joining my parents.
Be happy in one step: Pull all the assholes out of your life. Even alone, you can be happy.
Not if you are a nymphomaniac you can't.
@@kingsnurglegurglesonthevik4517 there is an exception for everything👌
What makes me happy is voluntarily taking on responsibility and achieving things that are worthwhile
I didn’t even notice the bra strap, but I felt less happy when told I missed it. So I rewound and felt happy again.
It’s the little things 🙂
I'm guessing 50-60% of us reflexively rewound because we could be bothered not to miss that moment.
I personally found a good way to get rid of unhappyness and to reset is taking a hot bath. Once you get used to the temperature in the bath you can add more hot water to increase to temperature little by little until you feel it's at an extreme but tolerable level. This puts your body under a stress more than what it's worrying about and your body forgets about your worry to deal with the immediate threat of being boiled alive.
I'm not really a "Bible beater" or anything, but I always feel better after I go to Church.
I am not saying….. stop listening/ reading….. you are a Bible brasher!
I enjoy listening to music, especially orchestra, classical, helps get my mind in tune(no pun intended, lol)
I agree. Nothing like some beautiful, classical music to lift the spirits.
After 67yrs, eventually found the best way to stay happy is to be happy with your own company. If you depend on other people to make yourself happy, they’ll let you down. I have reduced my friends over the years as people let me down. Be happy with yourself and only undertake things that make “YOU” happy. Be your own Zanadu.
Hmmm. I think 'Catholic guilt' was the give away as to why you cannot meditate. Listen to St. Therese of Liseux or The Life of St. Theresa of Avila. I am a convert. I am almost housebound, a serious depressive disorder for 30 years. But, praying (not meditating -crystals yoga etc). There is a Catholicism approached from the Saints, Saint Augustus, etc. I also study philosophy and am writing a doctorate - approach Catholicism from Plato (from where Christianity got a lot of its ideas). Do not approach Catholicism from a. bad experiences (the Church is made up of very faulty humans) or from the media. Approach it from listening to an audiobook of Story of a Soul St. Theresa of Avila - I am as happy as a pig in muck. 3 rosaries a day keeps the doctor away. I tried years of therapy - just made me more miserable.
🙏🏼
I asked a clerk at the bookstore where the Self Help section was. He said “Find it yourself.”
Very good new video, Daisy. I have actually deleted both my facebook & twitter accounts for good, which I feel so much better for it mentally & forty five minutes before I go to bed, I always read a good book or comic. :)
How to be happy? Watch a Daisy video. Makes my day better.
Hi Daisy I go to the Park and just walk around for an hour it’s great I always feel much better it must be the trees 🌲 great video thanks so much ❤️
My own recipe for happiness is this, first chose to be happy, second practice a cheerful demeanor, third help others in any way possible and fourth let go of all negative emotions that tend to accumulate. If we chose to think about what is wrong then we become depressed. By thinking about the things that are right our mood follows our thoughts.
So true!!!
I'm just wondering where you got those workout video clips from...😮😛
Absolutely, excellent advice!!! Especially, when you said skinny is magic! When I eat healthy I feel great, however, when I overeat I feel depressed and so fat! I am a big gal so I am not skinny at all, it is a state of mind! Great video!❤❤❤❤
Agreed 100%! I'm on the other end of the spectrum - naturally thin and never really gain much weight, but when I eat unhealthy, I _feel_ fat and it's very unpleasant.
Oh, don't worry Daisy. It was a very modest and sensible looking bra strap!
Right now I've been playing Christmas music while I clean and watching holiday movies while I wrap gifts to keep me in a holly jolly mood.
In general prayer, journaling, exercise, meditation, and some form of self care like a petticure or a hair treatment keeps me going. I also follow a daily planner to prevent future frustration.
Also I make an effort to not compain, mind my own business and not use other ppl as a yardstick.
Great tips. Indulge sparingly. Moderation is key. Live you life but don’t go crazy.
My tips:
1. Limit social media, particularly political content
2. Find a hobby to unwind from your day - from woodworking to enjoying nature to reading
3. Do at least a small act of kindness - from bringing in a treat to work to helping a neighbor
4. Do something productive, especially when you are down - from cleaning a room to decorating to unloading the dishwasher
5. Get out of your house for at least a few minutes a day. Being a shut in can really affect your mood.
6. Avoid too much negativity. Discuss important issues and then stop for a bit.
7. Break tasks into smaller more manageable ones - from cleaning individual rooms to sending Christmas cards
8. For friends and family, call them once in a while or speak to them in person instead of using some messaging app. Personally preferably physically interact with another human.
9. Do things that make you happy.
10. To an extent, fake it til you make it. Think more happy thoughts and you will be happier.
Hi Daisy that was a really lovely video and some really good advice, some of which I am already doing. I joined a gym a couple of months ago and its a small one but the atmosphere is so great. Also I like to read books to get away too, especially in the pandemic, when reading in my mind I was traveling going on adventures. Hope you and Calum have a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year xx
THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU!
The BEST advice!
Just for a start, I'm going to leave my gadgets downstairs and read a book before bed instead, also stay doing little jobs to fill in the mental down time i have so often through the day. Hopefully I'll be feeling better soon.
Great channels you have on here BTW!
Read a book and reduce sreentime...,
well that's kind of a struggle, I have an E-book reader. XD
You said "please please please" subscribe to your second channel. So, ok....fiiiine.
But only because you're cute.
Nonsense, she is gorgeous.
Hello Daisy great and relevant topic and thank you for sharing your video with us...
I'm 53, there's a lot of wisdom in this video!!
I have trouble cutting screen time before bed! I wouldn't have noticed the bra strap at all if not pointed out!!
Bang on Daisy!
⚡👍😎🤘⚡
One thing that always works is to go do something nice for someone that's worse off than you.
Yep, that's why when I get burned out at work, when I stop at the gas station on the way home, I'll grab a candy bar for the clerk
Yep, getting your 6, if not 8, hours of sleep, consistently, for at least a week, does wonders.
It can't pull in of itself, but gives a fresh start.
I have been seeing that more and more people are dying.
And the news outlets are not blaming COVID.
I guess that got old.
A return to normal makes me happy.
Someone needs to look seriously at this now. Nadine Dories has been blocked off the app for politicians in Westminster. I have met Anna Soubry (I like her) and don't agree with a single thing that she says but that doesn't mean she should be cancelled. The entire point of politics is the discourse/obloquy/colloquy Anna never got cancelled. So why is Nadine finding herself in this position? What is happening here? We need eyes on this. This is getting stupid now.
I used to read a lot of books from the library (pre-pandemic). I really should try to bring back that habit.
I've never been so at peace with myself since I started taking my medication. I also like to read before bedtime (unless it's something like Quantum Mechanics which makes me think I'm insane).
These were all good advice for balance but we really shouldn't believe that Happiness is the norm. When we look at happiness and believe this is the state we must be all the time we can get into the "Happiness trap" and think just because we feel anything else we are in an abnormal state. Many people state "I just want to be happy" I ask "What specifically do you want to be happy with?" is it financial, relationship, health, social, spiritual? there are many different aspects to our lives and they all have a subjective level of satisfaction we feel about them. One of the biggest things I recommend is trying to rewrite your self narrative and work on your self belief. Even when you're feeling sad, angry, tired of whatever, when your self image is a resemble positive one say like "I'm a good person however I'm just a normal human being and can improve" we can be a bit more real with ourselves and a bit more caring and have a less harsh inner voice.
I quit drinking energy drinks and soda for the most part about 2 months ago, and started working out, I'll still drink a soda every once in a while when I'm eating only, I'm not super religious about it or anything. I was in a rough patch in life, the girl I want to be with banished me to the friend zone and everything just wasn't going my way, but I've lost some weight and I feel so much better, I'm more confident and energetic. And the exterior things in my life like the girl still haven't gotten any better but my state of mind is much better, it's amazing how much taking a little control of your health can turn things around. Life still isn't a fairy tale with sunshine and bunny rabbits everywhere, but the stuff that sucks doesn't bum me out as much as it used to.
Getting off social media and less screen time will also increase the time you have during the day to get some exercise or work around the house done. So win win. Combine walks and meditation if you can. Leave your phone on silent and have a walk by the seaside or on a little mountain or a forest. Listen to the sounds around you. I can sit by the ocean and just listen to the waves for ages, watch the birds fly by, seals and otters play in the water, fishingboats passing by.
I also have to take a few pics and post them in Daisy's Discord though. Also helps me feel a little less sad cause i can spread the beauty of this world to other people.
Its proven happy people live a longer satisficing lives.
bra strap? I thought it was a thread.... not that I was looking or anything
If there is one word that will turn a very happy day into deep sadness it would be, biden.
These are all good suggestions. But as you age there are life challenges that can be major downers. Specifically because of their unrelenting nature and our lack of control over them.
Skinny is magic. Just ask Kae Serinuma.
Happiness is wanting what you have, not having what you want. An attitude of gratitude will lead to true inner happiness. Some of the most unhappy people complain about the rain and refuse to see that it washes away dirt, it helps the flowers to grow, the crops to grow, lakes to fill (drinking water, boating, fishing, etc.). It really isn't too difficult to find a positive in most situations.
As someone currently in a miserable breakup, ill take any advice on happiness i can get 😭
🙏🏼
Oh no.. be well 🤞🙏
I am in divorce (married for 13y), have 4 Kids, gotta pay for the next 12 years.
Because the divorce I had to take a loan from a friend and I still pay back my study loan. I could not even pay the rent for the first month if it was not for my friend.
She gets a house now, her father pays. I payed her master degree. Nie I am 39, in debt, have no savings and cause I payed for the children alone the last years have no savings.
Hey at least I have a secure Job and am German.
It can always be worse dude.
RIP my life
@Create Account maybe, but its their problem. I only mm meant I live in a stable country.
Great advice cheers daisy
Move to a new planet away from woke crap
Thank God I'm safe
I'm a fellow millenial. For the context, I was diagnosed with bipolar disorder (by a specialists ofc, not self-diagnosis bs). I share my thoughts as the video goes.
Meditation never worked for me, tbh, because it's simply too loud in my head (I'm overthinking a lot, can't help it, I have some techniques, but they sometimes don't work). Even if it's well intentioned - like you've said - I just roll my eyes at such advice. Everyone says 'meditate' but noone says how to do it. Should I just sit there and count my breaths? Or think about positive stuff? Ugh.
Smiling, despite feeling crappy, was my reality in retail. It lost it's effect pretty quickly.
As for early signs...yeah I can feel them. I usually go out for a smoke, or close myself in a bathroom. Rarely helps, but it's better than nothing.
Exercise...ugh. I hate exercising. It puts me in a worse mood, no joke.
Sleeping enough is difficult for me, since I have perpetual nightmares. My mind is my worst enemy. Last time I slept well was when I had a concussion and they induced medical coma for a day.
Not eating a bad food already. Running on protein shakes for a week now to have a calorie deficit and feel full. I'm overweight (I look extra-thicc, no joke, but I'm way over my healthy weight limit + I cant wear what I like), I want to lose some of it. It took me over 10 years to do something about it. We'll see how it will go, cause it's too early to see if it works.
Being nice to people...well I'm always to my boyfriend. I pay him compliments everyday. Like smiling, it lost it's initial charm, but at least i feel at ease he is recognized. God knows how badly men are treated in the society.
Productivity - drawing, drawing, writing, writing, or even doing an achievement in a game makes me feel better a bit. I'm planning to make my own YT channel to push more dopamine, cause I've been doing things I've mentioned for years and it doesn't have that bliss effect as it did.
Get off social media - already deleted twitter half a year ago, never had facebook, nor anything simillar. I actually never experienced growing up with social media, so yeah.
Books - I used to be a bookworm...if I wasn't so picky with it now! God damn me...the book has to be in fantasy category, lots of magic, the main character should be reliable to me at some degree, the magic system should be believable, some homo-erotica would be nice...at this point I'm writing my own novels to fantasize about. Harry Potter was nice, but had too much loopholes when I re-read it. I've had some niche series in my early teens and adulthood, yes, but right now I'm sooo...ugh...I always come out annoyed from the bookstore when I'm trying to pick up a book.
Forgive people - I can't. I just can't. Even if I don't think about it everyday, there are people I will never forgive and forget. I'm waiting for the perfect moment to lash back at them. I just can't let it go, and my therapists were trying for years. Is it worth it? Not really. Will it give me a satisfaction? Definitely.
Well, those are my thoughts. It's not a jab at you, Daisy, I just wanted to share how they worked for me over the years. Your advice is great, not gonna lie - those are maybe it's out of my reach.
Venting, actually, releases some pressure for me. So here I am, venting xD
I had also punched a guy at a gay club I'm going to sometimes, cause he couldn't understand the word "no" and became too touchy with me. This put up me in a good mood for a week.
I'm not an expert (at anything), but being bipolar, having borderline personality disorder or any mental disarray, compounds one's ability to experience happiness.
Its not that hard. Do what makes you happy and keep shitty toxic people out of your life
Even if you are a serial killer and nothing makes you happier than removing ten peoples heads a week ?
How to be happy:
1: Don't be Clementine Ford.
2: Don't talk to Clementine Ford.
3: Be eternally grateful that you are NOT Clementine Ford.
4: Don't be a feminist.
Bra strap?!?! You tease. Lol. I didn't notice until pointed out. Typical guy, I know. 🤣.
Sounds like "Gothic Guilt Complex," Sydney Watson suffers from GGC as well. Maybe it's an Australian thing? [sardonic humor]
Exceedingly healthy reminders. Thank you!
You are wonderfully compassionate and level headed. I feel happier just watching this channel.

This may seem really corny or like I'm sucking up, but your political content actually is something that genuinely makes me happy. You hear all the leftist side of things and that 'CONSERVATIVES BAD' but seeing your content is refreshing and seeing someone putting up the fight is great; especially with your awesome one liners you throw in their from time to time. It's great. That and playing music and reading.
I'm a Scottish Soldier. I'm both Mental and Healthy!
Watching you makes me happy. Thank you for the videos
Find someone really nice and have a head over heals ridiculously, outrageously sexy escapade with them. There, job done, instant happiness all round.
Watching this as I just ate a bag of candy and a large chocolate bar. Then I watched a movie with some effort. I made it till the end. It was interesting. Agree with your advice. Unfortunately I've run out of juice.
Off hand, first guess, considering Aussie and such - Alcohol?😁
to add, reading Marcus Aurelius' meditations might help, talk to yourself, keep a diary, look in the mirror and say everything will be ok, take a breath and think of a plan.
You left one off your list, since your now married you should know about this practice making a baby that will help too. It makes people feel good and is good exercise which is on your list.
Isnt "recognize the early signs" the same thing as mindfulness?
Meditation consists of two ingredients: concentration and mindfulness. Concentration is just focusing on the task such as timed breathing, visualisation, a phrase/single prayer/mantra. Mindfulness is simply an awareness of everything else that isn’t what you are concentrating on. That’s the key to all meditation practices =]
A quick and dirty “mental reset” : breathe in through the left nostril, then out through the right, then breathe in through the right nostril, and out through the left. Do that cycle four times.
Good Question:Be (responsible) for your own happiness and depend on someone else to give to you it's a God's giving rights to ever human being on this living planet 😎
I am quite drunk just now too!
Then have a nice, big glass of water, brush your toothy-pegs, get into your snuggliest fur coat and hop in to bed like a good drunk bear should! Sweet dreams! 😄
One way that keeps me happy is to remember the crappy will go away. Ride the wave.
Thank you for the video Daisy. :)
The secret to happiness is watching Daisy on you tube!
Most of these are pretty good, like you know shit and you tried it.
hiya
The proper way to maditate is:
- listen binaural music
- feel everything that comes up during meditation
What about meditating in complete silence
@@earthsurgery1237 if you mean to suppress all feelings and thoughts then it is wrong way to meditate
@@Trofim-f5y debatable
@@earthsurgery1237 it depends on your goal of a meditation. If your goal is to heal yourself from psychological problems then my way isvthe proper one.
This is a great video. Thank you 😊
Gotta say. Did not mind the bra strap.
Taking a rocket to Mars... XD
Sleep, as an insomniac, sleep is difficult, I think that you are giving good advice, but it's only for normal people
Food is food, food is meant for survival, having starved at various points in my life, I've learned that food is for surviving, but I guess that's a difference between normal people and myself
Who could sad with that face to look at.
Good advice x
I found that the older I get the more I realise that just being physically healthy is and was the most important thing to know and knew I had.
It's incredible how much you don't appreciate health until it's taken away and then the other issues become so much more lessened in the grand scheme of it all.
